In Pictures: Celebrities Who Twitter

Britney Spears

Who needs prying gossip magazines when pop stars twitter away their own privacy? Britney Spears and a coterie of assistants update her feed, followed by more than 260,000 users, with semi-frequent details including what milkshake the singer had with dinner the night before, her latest problems with paparazzi and occasionally serious notes, like her son Jayden’s hospital visit for food poisoning. When a hacker broke into Spears’ Twitter account earlier in January, the feed turned more personal still, offering a vivid description of her nether regions’ orthodontia.
